GenTLe 1,509 Posted December 29, 2015 which tool I need to buy for insert the Hands (the name of the tool)? Actually I have only buy the remover Hand's tool. There is a guide for understand how many power pressure I need exercise? There are various ones. I got this from Bergeon but if I had a time machine I'd not buy it again. The terminal bits are metal and tend to scratch the hands (that are ULTRAEASY to get scratched). So I covered them with a layer of epoxy glue. Now I would buy this instead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GenTLe 1,509 Posted December 29, 2015 Bic biro does the job apparently. Bic may be fine but for the hands with a big post hole. Like the GMT on the 2836 gmt modified one. I would stay FAR away from using such tool on anything thinner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dendo 93 Posted December 29, 2015 But how many force have u apply? They stop to move when have reach the correct position? Not too much pressure - you should feel it clicking into place - it is a touch thing - you can push too much and damage the hands or too little and not get them to stay on. Replica hands are not as good as gen hands and can cause issues particularly if you mix and match gen and rep, hands and canon pinion. Good luck and be very perpendicular in the transmission of the gentle but sufficient force - Luke Skywalker attributed.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
